From J James Eros, LA From JA Blessing Madison, WI
The 23 y. o. was interested in smelling the oil,
but not wanting to eat the bottle. Before I got my fingers in
his nostrils, he had to throw his head up 2-3 times, but then
it just hit him. He lowered his head, eyes softened, licking,
chewing, yawning, blowing. He also seemed to love the acupressure.
He, too, came over and nuzzled my hand, as if asking for more.
It was a much better than expected first time experience. Thank
you so much. We have 6 police horses at our barn. I thought
of them immediately, as benefiting from this InBalance Blend.
They are having a training meeting on Saturday. I am giving
them your video to watch. Hopefully, they will be at least half
as enthused as I am. From C Bloss Narvon, PA I had such a wonderful experience doing this and can't wait to do it again. It's most relaxing for me too! I also did the mouth massage and the acupressure you demonstrate on the DVD. I just felt so good doing this for the "boys" and I know they appreciated it. Thank you so much for sharing this special focusing
session with the "world". I feel so good about it, I just can't
express enough! From M. DeCarlo, Lexington, KY From H. R. in Kentucky Oreo is almost 22 yoa, and usually a pretty calm boy, but does get separation anxiety a lot at shows and clinics when separated from his buddies. I get show anxiety, when my horse gets separation anxiety. Sound like a prescription for fun, excitement, and explosive spiraling? It can be. It has been. Enter the essential oils. I remembered to put them on me, it is now my morning routine, but left them inside, and headed for Frankfort. Oreo was great around the stalls, with his best buddy next door. He got jumpy (remember, it is a dressage show) when we moved away, however, right on schedule. While in warm up, he began calling out to his best friend, and anyone else who would listen. However, it ended there. I had my act together. I was able to remain calm, and relaxed, focused and on track. Now Oreo is not a great dressage horse. He is an old eventer, with several injuries and almost no impulsion unless I tap him with the whip with every other stride. When you do that, he looks off, because he gets jumpy (remember , it is a dressage show) and he looks uneven. However, he did quite well. Came in 4th place in one class, 7th in another. But the important thing was the clarity in my head. I got remarks like, "Excellent geometry" "Well ridden", and "Very Accurate Test". That was my goal. My head stayed in the game. Essential Oils? Maybe. Me learning to ride dressage tests better? Maybe. Combination of many things? Probably. But the only thing I changed since my last show was the Oils. Interesting - No? Hope your hands are staying warm and you are
getting to ride often. |
